Aug 21, 2019The issue manages to pull off both a conclusion and a cliffhanger, defying convention much the way the book's heroine does thus making Fairlady #5 one of the best books out this week. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Aug 21, 2019Things have gone very, very badly for Jenner in this issue. The dive into the darkness this issue shows a willingness to vary the mood and tone. To show a real progression in Jenners long-range character development that could be quite dynamic over time. The challenge here might be keeping things fresh over the very, very long-haul as so much seems to be happening for the young Fairlady in such a brief time. The series appears to be rounding-out the first half of its first (of hopefully many) years very dynamically. Read Full Review

Aug 21, 2019Fairlady departs from our lives far too early as it was just starting to outline its major plot. It was a beautiful project performed by a group of deeply talented artists who I'll make sure to follow from this point on. For that, I can only thank them for giving us a small taste of what could've been. Read Full Review

Word Of The Nerd - Cat Wyatt
Aug 21, 2019Fairlady #5 was perhaps the strongest issue of the series, weaving old plots into the new and creating something so much larger than readers have ever expected. Jenner's perspective was retrospective in a way that made it oddly perfect for the last issue. Read Full Review

THE GOOD: -Well, I finally got around to reading this issue. It was great. I loved it. -This series always does a good job of beginning with a scene towards the end, without turning it into too much of a gimmick. -I love Claudia Balboni's art. It's not perfect, but something about it just feels very natural and it fits this world very well. -This issue had the best mystery yet. I was really surprised by the reveal too. -I loved how this issue tied back to the very first issue nicely. -That chase scene was really fun and very fluid. -I love these characters. -That end was very suspenseful and tense. -Great cliffhanger! -It just feels good in my soul to read a 31 page issue that I paid 3.99 for. -What? more
